That's actually one of the use cases that I'm thinking of - you can
actually do a lot with the WebKit API, like get the text of a
component, or simulate a click on a button, which (after making a
wrapper script) makes it actually easy to do website testing.

Thanks for the link to Phantom.js. Actually, Lua + lqt (qtwebkit) also
has "fast and native support for various web standards" :) And that is
before you throw in LuaJIT ;)
